What the college says

An understanding of how language works is absolutely essential if you want to examine communication and interaction between people. In this subject you will learn how language is acquired during childhood. Furthermore, you will learn how language has changed and is constantly changing in the age of the Internet. You will analyse speech and writing and develop your own writing skills in using different styles to suit different purposes and audiences. You will learn how to discuss language and how to understand its roots and its grammar. You will create your own texts and learn how to adapt and change texts created by others. If you enjoy discussions, reading and writing then this is a subject that will suit you. English Language blends analytical skills with creative flair to make this both a challenging and exciting subject.
